Best Arthouse Sci-Fi Films of All Time

Art-house films are usually smaller films aimed at niche markets. Many art-house directors and producers create films for artistic value, they have something to say and have more value beyond mere entertainment. Though some art-house films can also be incredibly entertaining.
A common theme in science-fiction is the human condition, and often sci-fi concerns itself with profound questions like what it means to be human, or the meaning of life in general. This is also something sci-fi has in common with art-house. It is therefore not strange that there are a number of great art-house sci-fi films around. They range all the way from well-known classics like 'Stalker' to small productions like 'Évolution', both of which are included on this list. Many great directors have tried their hand at art-house sci-fi, in the following list a well-rounded film fan would recognise quite a few names. Here are the greatest art-house sci-fi films.
